Week 8 Case Study –Neurological Problems
George is a 59-year-old lawyer who presents to the emergency room with weakness and numbness of his right side that began while playing golf this morning. George says he had an unusual headache when he first woke up, but he was looking forward to golf and the headache was not bad enough to prevent him from golfing. While on the golf course, George suddenly had an episode of weakness. After this weakness, George realized he could not move his right side, could not speak, fell off his seat in the golf cart, and could not get up. George’s friends called 911 to bring him to the emergency room. This episode with neurological deficits has lasted longer than 1 hour and persists while the patient is in the emergency room. George has a history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus type 2, and 30-pack-years of smoking.

This week you will be reflecting on key health determinants and the use of research and evidence-based practice which may impact the development of population health measures and policy initiatives. The article by Cook et al. (2014) titled, Support for smoke free multi-unit housing policies among racially and ethnically diverse, low income seniors in South Florida, is a prime example on key stakeholders setting an agenda, conducting a survey (research study), and facilitating change. Please address the following questions based on your analysis and understanding of the article:
Who are the stakeholders?
Based on your analysis of the literature review embedded in the study, do you think the authors do a good job in framing a policy change?
Do you think this policy change has potential implications at other locations/facilities? If so, how?
What do you think are next steps in this program of research and policy?

Case: End-Stage Kidney Disease
Cynthia, a 53-year-old female presented to the emergency room due to feeling constantly tired, hungry, thirsty, and with frequent urination. Her past medical history is significant for cirrhosis and end-stage kidney disease.

Description
Written communication in nursing incorporates the use of evidence or research published in the literature from scholarly references. Scholarly references are defined as work that is peer-reviewed and published in a professional journal. Using published research to support the viewpoint of nursing, especially in cases being made for change, will enhance the argument.
An annotated bibliography is a list of resources you anticipate using to support your argument. Developing an annotated bibliography will help you organize your research. To create a purposeful annotated bibliography, the following information should be included: the specific citation, a brief summary or paragraph about the article, and how it pertains to your research question.
Assignment Details
This is a 3-step project:
Identify a change.
Find 6 articles.
Write an annotated bibliography for each article.
Please read the detailed instructions below carefully.
Step 1: Write 3–4 sentences answering the following questions:
Identify and describe a recent change that occurred in your workplace. It could be a change in the levels of staffing; a change in policy, such as time off or tuition reimbursement; a change in use of equipment or supplies; a change in charting or computerized medical records; and so on. Describe the change in 3-4 sentences.
1 of the sentences should address the rationale for the change.
Step 2: Begin researching scholarly articles from the library from the past 5 years that are related to the change issue identified in Step 1.
Complete a 6-column table of the references you found, including the following: Author(s) last name, first initial.
(Year).
Title of article.
Title of Publication,
Volume #(Issue #),
Pages of the article.
A minimum of 6 scholarly references are needed to complete this assignment; you may find more.
EXAMPLE
Change Issue: Low Census Staffing Policy
Currently, when the patient census is low, staff go home based on tenure; the same staff are continually going home, resulting in a lower paycheck for these nurses. The proposed change is to rotate all staff to leave when the census is low, regardless of tenure, so the burden of potentially lower pay is shared among the entire staff and not the same few.
Author Last Name, First, Initial.
(Year).
Title of Article.
Title of Publication,
Volume #
(Issue #),
Pages.
Step 3: This step requires the development of an annotated bibliography for each of the 6 articles listed in Step 2. This step should be 6 paragraphs total (1 for each article that is summarized and analyzed) and approximately 450–700 words in 2–3 double-spaced pages.
Consider the following:
Summarize the main points for each of the 6 references (must be from within the last 5 years) from Step 2, each in its own paragraph.
Use the MEAL method of writing, where each paragraph contains a minimum of 4 sentences: M = Main point
E = Example and/or Evidence (citation)
A = Analysis—refers to what was significant about the article and how the article was related to the change topic you selected. Be sure to include at least 1 analysis sentence about each reference in that paragraph.
L = Link or transition to the main topic
Remember to cite each article appropriately (Author(s) Last Name, Year) and include an APA formatted reference page.
